EARN MORE 30 – 50% MORE AS AN INDUSTRIAL MAINTENANCE TECHNICIAN

Demand is Growing and Widespread

The reshoring of manufacturing to the USA, the growth of automation, and a surge of retirements among baby boomers are driving an unprecedented demand for maintenance technicians. The immediate need will continue to expand as construction is completed on new manufacturing facilities across the region.

​

There’s a Fast Track to Get Qualified 

Most of these construction projects won't be finished for at least another year. That means you have time to earn your maintenance credentials at Brightpoint Community College as the facilities are being built. The certifications you earn will apply to maintenance work almost everywhere.
